Sales of seed corn and corn silage are not eligible for support. Producers must provide proof of sale, showing the names of the buyer, seller, the date of sale, date and location of delivery, weight, moisture content and the price received for the corn. Al purchases of corn and other fed will be converted to corn equivalents by the Ontario Income Stabilization Commis- sion and deducted from corn sales to give the net çuantity, eligible for Corn Stabilization payments for any person enrolled in the Program. This means that if a farmer sold 100 ton of corn or grain corn equivalent, but bought in 50 ton of barley, that he would hear the names of the winners of the competition. Tied for first place were two grade 12 girls, Cynthia Ball and Susan Hart. only qualify for only 50 ton of corn, which would be stabil- ized under the Program. Individual producers may claim Stabilization Payments on up to 39,000 bushels or 1,000 metric tonnes. The minimum quantity for enrollment in the Program is 400 bushels or 10 tonnes. In the combined, Federal-Provincial Program, under the Federal Legislation, the 400 bushels is a deductible amount, while under the Ontario Program, it is not. In other words, if a producer sold 500 bushel of corn, under the Federal Program, he would only receive stabilization pay- ments on 100 bushel, while under the Provincial pro- gram, he would receive pay- ment on the full, 500 bushel. The maximum on any farm unit, regardless of the number of partners, is 3,000 tonnes.

The Program is voluntary and open to all corn producers whose ordinary residence is Ontario. Participating pro- ducers must enroll in the Program by January 16, 1978. We do expect to have the Enrollment Forms in our office by November 1st, and any farmer who has called requesting these, will have them sent to him, and if you wish enrollment forms, please get in touch with our office and we will forward them to you. There is an Enrollment Fee for the Program and for this year only, no fees will be payable at the time of enrollment. The fee will be calculated and deducted from any payment made next fall on eligible sales. For example, if the Stabilization payment made by the province is 12 cents per bushel, then the payment to producers would be 12 cents minus 1-3 or 4 cents leaving a net payment of 8 cents per bushel. The plan requires that producers pro- vide $1.00 for enrollment fees for each $3.00 that is paid out of the fund over the long term of the plan. The Provincial Government provides the other $2.00. A claim form must be submitted by each pro- ducer at the end of the crop year, and this will be the basis for all payments under both the Provincial and Federal Programs. As we mentioned, Enroll- ment Forms will be available at the Agricultural Office, hopefully, by the last of November, and these must be completed and sent to the Ontario Grain Corn Income Stabilization Program, Legis- lative Buildings, Toronto, no later than January 16, 1978. Any farmer wishing further information on this Program or clarification of details on it, should get in touch with the Agricultural Office in Bow- manville. Prevent Rodent Damage Gardeners are encouraged not to let rabbits and mice use their garden as their winter home. Serious damage caused by rodents each winter can be prevented by taking precau- tionary measures now. One of the most important preventa- tive steps is to make sure your garden is clean. Gardeners should clear debris, dead leaves and plant tops from around the base of trees, and cut back long grass to make your garden a less desirable home for rodents. It is also recommended that cultivating the soil around trees and shrubs will also discourage these pests. To discourage rabbits, it is suggested that painting trunks and branches with a repellent containing Thiram. In addition you can set wire tree guards of ¼ inch mesh around tree trunks to control mice. Make certain the end of the guard is about three inches deep into the soil. For extra protection against mice, mound the end of the guard with crushed stone. Other types of protectors, including spiral plastic guards and aluminum foil, are avail- able at local garden supply centres. Young fruit trees, lilacs, flowering crab, mountain ash, and hawthorn trees are par- ticularly susceptible to rodent damage. Rodents will also eat some types of shrubs. Re- member, if you take precau- tionary measures now, you will have healthy, vigorous shrubs and flowers in your garden next spring. maker converted into another goa Scoring wase third Knox sc Albrecht for F Prentice got hiss game for Spend Baker assisting.

The Town of Newcastle last week transferred the property, formerly the Elliott Memorial Park to CLOCA to add to the Hampton Conservative Area. In plans presented to the town's Community, Services committee on Monday night, the authority indicated that they would spend $10,000 in renovations. The funds will cover the cost of building a small playground, sodding, filling in and raising the level of the soccer field in the park and additional new equipment such as barbecue rills, pienie tables, new lights and a drinking ountain. The transfer of the six acres will increase the conservation area surrounding the Hampton Mill Pond from 15 to 21 acres.
